Can you help me with "minimal lifestyle"?
About 10 years ago, I saw a book about 'minimal living'...that is, minimal shelter, clothing, and food and requiring very little money to just plain live. I've search Google, Amazon, and other bookstores and can't find much of anything about that subject. But, I know that there are people who are interested in such things. I'm very interested in living a less complicated and costly lifestyle. Can you point me in the right direction? Thanks,

Safetydancer,
If you think about the sacred four - shelter, water, fire, food, then you can ask yourself, "what do I need to survive beyond that?
So many gadgets for entertainment that we all think we need!
The more time you spend out in nature the more you realize she is all you need.
A few years ago I was caught up in the hubub of modern life and decided I needed to 'air out'. So I bought a tipi and headed out deep into the forest and stayed for 6 months living off the land. Do this and you will KNOW how to minimize your living in society.
Good Luck
